This ancient Chinese treatment is based on the theory that various energy fields follow specific pathways in the body. Inserting the fine, sterile and disposable needles re-establishes the correct energy flow, thus reducing dysfunction or illness and returning harmony to the body. It has proved so effective at reducing muscle spasm that we have incorporated it in many of our other therapies, including physiotherapy and osteopathy. For those with a phobia to needles, acupressure or laser treatment can be offered instead.
